But, I’m Not Perfect

Flowery cards and sappy sentiments about how wonderful mothers are. Don't forget the infamous "Proverbs 31 woman" we hear about in church who gets up early, stays up late, and somehow manages to perfectly balance self-care, motherhood, and a career. For many women this ideal looks nothing like real life, and the disconnect can leave them feeling broken, hopeless, and like failures. How does God see the mom who doesn't have everything perfectly figured out? This Mother's Day we will look at God's answer to this question. You'll be encouraged and blessed!

Heaven Rules: GOD BEHIND THE SCENES

In a time when the world seems to be going crazy and making no sense, especially to a Christian, it is easy to ask, "What in the world is going on," or "Who is in control?" From our human perspective things may seem hopeless, confusing, never-ending, or even frightening. If only we could see clearly from God's perspective! Is there a redemptive story God is writing that we can't see from our perspective? The first chapter of Daniel shows us God is working behind the scenes, which illustrates a principle that's true in our world today, as well as in our personal lives. Heaven Rules!

The Power of Prayer

When Jesus taught His disciples to pray, He revealed life-changing power to them. The power wasn't in the disciples' prayers; it was from the One to whom they prayed. In this message, Matt Cherry explores the transformative nature of prayer when our desires align with the Almighty God.

The Yoke of the Lord

Looking for soul rest? Wanting to lay down your burdens? Jesus invites us to do both, through discovering and experiencing an abundant life in Him. Ben Goodman is back this week to share a message from Matthew 11:28-30.

Heaven Rules: LIVING IN BABYLON

In a world on the brink of total chaos, we see economic turmoil, political turmoil, division and strife, cultural upheaval, violence, persecution, and more! Once we have an understanding that God in "Heaven Rules," our perspective of what's going on in the world will change and we will have greater clarity on how we are to live as "exiles" in this chaotic and evil world. Join us as we walk through the book of Daniel and see how we all would do well to follow Daniel's example.

STUCK IN SATURDAY: From the Cross to the Empty Tomb

Good Friday commemorates the crucifixion, and Easter Sunday the resurrection. The Saturday in between commemorates desperation, uncertainty, and perplexity. For Jesus's followers Saturday was a horrible day of disappointment, despair, and disillusionment. Like the disciples we too can easily get stuck in Saturday, living with a Saturday state of mind because of circumstances--no hope, no courage, no plans, and feeling there is no way of escape. Then comes Sunday morning! Jesus is calling your name!

B R O K E N: Preparing for Easter - I Put Him There

When Jesus met with the Pharisee Nicodemus, He revealed revolutionary truths about our human state and the work of the cross. Jesus's work on the cross was not for Him, it was for us. The cross was for our redemption because of our sin. Pastor Matt helps us see how we should respond when our broken state creates a broken Savior.

B R O K E N: Preparing for Easter - Broken by the Crucifixion

Pastor Mike takes us to Mark 8:31-33 as we continue our BROKEN series in preparation for Easter.  The reality of why Jesus had to suffer and die, and what it made possible for each of us, should cause us to prepare for Easter with a sense of humility and brokenness.  A brokenness that leads to repentance, surrender, thanksgiving, praise, and worship.

B R O K E N: Preparing for Easter - Stop Playing Church

We begin a new four-part series this week, focusing on John 2:13-25 where Jesus is angry at what is taking place in the temple courts. Jesus is teaching His followers about true worship before He goes to the cross. Pastor Casie will help us focus on what true worship looks like for believers today.

Margins: Leaving Room for God to Work - A Change of Pace

When our pace in life is too fast, we miss the things that are most important. Jesus invited us to come to Him when we're "weary and heavy laden," and He will give us rest. In the last week of our Margins series, we'll explore the unhurried rhythms of grace as we walk with Jesus.

Margins: Leaving Room for God to Work - Margin in Our Finances

Margin in the area of our finances provides a safety net as we go through the ups and downs of life. With financial margins there is room to breathe, a sense of peace, and freedom. Without this room to breathe, we fall apart! The Bible teaches us to work hard to create and maintain financial margins. Why? Because when we live our lives within our limits, there is freedom! This week we'll look at three Biblical steps we can take to build our financial margin.

Margins: Leaving Room for God to Work - Delighting in Sabbath

Delighting in Sabbath
Sabbath is an ancient practice that often has been neglected by believers today. Sabbath was modeled by God when He rested on the seventh day during creation. Perhaps we should still continue to follow God's example and delight in taking a weekly Sabbath rest.

Margins: Leaving Room for God to Work - A Thief Called Anxiety

A Thief Called Anxiety Matthew 6:25-34 
Anxiety and worry...we've all experienced these at some point in the past. If allowed they will consume much of our time in ways that are not only unproductive, but in ways that can have devastating consequences. God wants us to create margin in our life and schedule through not having anxiety and worry robbing us. God tells us how to accomplish this in His Word.
